Civil War Battle Scene On Model Railroad
A lot of model railroaders choose to model particular scenes, regions and times in history. If you are interested in Civil War history then you might be able to help one model railroader who is having difficulty researching the paint scheme(s) used by the U.S.M.RR during the Siege of Petersburg. If you can offer an answer just click on the comments tag below the post to have your say. Here is the question:
“I am both an HO guage model railroader and a Civil War re-enactor. I want to incorporate a Civil War battle scene into my HO layout. Included would be an “American” 4-4-0 steam engine and several “U.S. Military Railroad” cars. My problem is all the photos I have found are black and white and I can’t seem to find any information on the paint scheme(s) used by the U.S.M.RR during the Siege of Petersburg.”
